PEONY PAVILION, A MASTER PIECE. DIVINES FOURBERIES DE LA MORT – ou – LOVE'S TOILING LOAD
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: I consider this opera a masterpiece, and the Kunqu opera genre is unique and should bring about a renewal in theatrical and operatic art ay world level. A much-needed renewal to creatively address the challenge of Artificial Intelligence. But this AI is an existential and spiritual challenge that we must face and resolve to our advantage. We might, perhaps, have to summon an Infernal Judge to pull us out of the impasse we are digging or burying ourselves into, creating ruts that will completely block us. Fortunately, electric motors cannot be flooded with fuel, gas, or diesel. There is a sense of humor in Kunqu opera that ultimately makes the dramatic architecture thrilling.
